The main purpose of the Marlborough Arts Association is to organise and run the annual Marlborough International Jazz Festival, which is regarded as the biggest event of its kind in England.. In the words of the Sunday Telegraph, 'Each year this beautiful market town becomes a mini-New Orleans. ' The festival takes place over a long weekend in July. It features some 100 bands in 23 locations. As well as putting on established stars it is the policy to encourage young, up-and-coming musicians.
